Last Mimzy on DVD

At my
friend Ed's suggestion, I watched the DVD version of
"The Last Mimzy" last night... Some interesting
"special features" and interviews. I'm glad I gave it
a second viewing outside of my local theater viewing
some months ago, and the interviews did add some
signifcant context, although the depth of information
could have been more for my liking.
Three suggestions:
1) Their DNA interviews would have benefitted by integrating Bruce Lipton's recent work.
2) They danced all around the "Sri Yantra" without specifically mentioning the commonly accepted name of this visual thematic anchor to the film, and
3) I still think (as I wrote in my blog some months ago) that it would have been more interesting if the "generator" in the movie actually "generated" (e.g. created an enormous surplus like a huge photovoltaic array suddently going online, dumping power into the grid like all of us with ReNU (CitizenRe PV systems) will be doing in a year or so) ... rather than "sucked" an enormous amount of power FROM the grid.
Overall, a film worth seeing, especially now on DVD.
